प्रकृति जिसे इस तरह का वरदान देती है, वह हमेशा कल्पना का सबसे लाड़ला बच्चा होता है; तुम्हारे लिए वह सुंदर, चमकीले और अनोखे सपनों का ताना-बाना बुनती है।

He whom nature thus bereaves, Is ever fancy's favourite child; For thee enchanted dreams she weaves Of changeful beauty, bright and wild.

हमने 97 की वसंत ऋतु में एलन गिन्सबर्ग के निधन से ठीक पहले उनके एक आखिरी प्रोजेक्ट पर उनके साथ सहयोग किया था, जिसका नाम इल्यूमिनेटेड पोएम्स था - यह एलन की कविताओं और गीतों का एक संग्रह था और मैंने उन पर चित्रकारी की थी। या यों कहें कि मैंने चित्रों और रेखाचित्रों के ज़रिए उनमें जान फूँक दी थी जो उनसे मेल खाते थे। आप चाहते हैं कि तस्वीर पाठ से इस तरह जुड़े कि वह उसकी नकल न लगे या सिर्फ उसका दृष्टांत न बन जाए, क्योंकि वह तो फालतू की पुनरावृत्ति होगी। आप पाठ द्वारा कही जा रही बात को एक नए दृष्टिकोण से दिखाना चाहते हैं।

We had collaborated with Allen Ginsberg on one of his last projects just before he died in the spring of '97, a book called Illuminated Poems - it was Allen's poems and songs and I illustrated them. Or, I illuminated them with paintings and drawings that bounced off of them. You want the picture to relate to the text without it slavishly regurgitating it or merely illustrating it, because that's redundant. You want to show another angle of what the text is saying.

नॉन-फिक्शन आपके हाथ थोड़े बांध देता है, और ठीक वैसे ही जैसे तुकबंदी में कविता लिखना, यह आपको शब्दों के चुनाव, कहानी की रूपरेखा आदि के मामले में ज़्यादा कठोर फ़ैसले लेने पर मजबूर कर सकता है।

Nonfiction ties your hands a bit, and just like writing poetry in rhyme, it can force you to make more brutal decisions in terms of word choice, plot, etc.

आज के समय के कल्चर में विजुअल मीडिया (दृश्य माध्यम) सबसे प्रमुख कला रूप है, जबकि कविता ज़्यादा से ज़्यादा उसका एक विकल्प मात्र बनकर रह गई है। फिर भी, कविता और फिल्म दोनों ही "सपनों की फैक्ट्रियां" हैं।

Visual media is the dominant art form in our present day culture, whereas poetry is, at best, a proxy. Yet poetry and film are both "dream factories."

जब मैं कविता लिखती हूँ, तो अपने दिमाग को थोड़ा सुस्त बनाने की कोशिश करती हूँ, ताकि बहुत ज्यादा न सोचना पड़े; यह दिमाग के उस हिस्से को खोलने का एक तरीका है जो कविताएँ रचता है। प्रक्रिया के इस हिस्से में अक्सर मैं सफल नहीं हो पाती। अगर मेरा दिमाग कुछ ज्यादा ही सुस्त हो जाए, तो वह जानी-पहचानी और बोरिंग जगहों पर अटक जाता है, ऐसा लगता है जैसे मेरा दिमाग भौतिक दुनिया को बस छू रहा हो।

When I am writing poetry, I try to make my mind go a little lazy, to not think too much, as a way of opening up the part of the brain that makes poems. If I'm successful in this part of the process I'm often not. If my mind gets too lazy it will linger in familiar boring territory, it's like my mind can stroke the physical world.

मुझे लोगों को सपने देखना, सोचना, कल्पना करना, सीखना और अध्ययन करना पसंद है। आजकल का संगीत बहुत सीधा-साधा होता है- वह आपको बताता है, "चीजें ऐसी हैं," और मेरा संगीत इसके बिल्कुल विपरीत है। मैं ऐसे दौर से आती हूँ जहाँ बोल कल्पनाओं और रूपकों से भरे होते थे, और मैं बस यही जानती हूँ।

I like to make people dream and think and imagine and learn and study. Nowadays, music is so literal - it's telling you, "This is how it is," and my music's the opposite. I come from an era where lyrics were full of imagery and metaphor, and that's all I know.

जब मैं किशोर था, संगीत मेरा दोस्त हुआ करता था और मैं उसके बोलों में खो जाता था, उनसे सुकून पाता था। मैं बिल्कुल वैसे ही लिखना चाहता हूँ।

यह पूरी तरह से किरदारों पर आधारित नाटक है। कॉर्नर का लेखन किसी संगीत की तरह है जो साथ ही साथ आँखों के सामने तस्वीरें भी उकेर देता है। एक अभिनेता के रूप में इन संवादों को बोलना अपने आप में एक सुखद अहसास है। यह बातचीत की आम शैली जैसा लगता है, लेकिन साथ ही एक गहरी कहानी भी कहता है।

It's very much a character-based play. Conor's writing is almost musical and paints pictures at the same time. It's a joy as an actor to be able to say the words. It's very conversational but at the same time, tells a story.

मैं अभी 'रश' बैंड के बारे में सोच रही थी। कुछ साल पहले मैं उनका एक कॉन्सर्ट देखने गई थी, क्योंकि अमेरिका में मेरे रिकॉर्ड लेबल के एक साथी को वहाँ जाना बहुत पसंद था। हमें बहुत ही शानदार सीटें मिली थीं। भीड़ को देखना वाकई दिलचस्प था—ज़्यादातर पुरुष—जो उन बेहद जटिल और गहरे शब्दों से इतने भावुक हो रहे थे। मुझे नील पियर्ट के गाने के बोल बहुत अच्छे से तो नहीं पता, लेकिन वे मुझे इतने सीधे-साधे भी नहीं लगते।

I was just thinking of Rush. I went to see Rush a few years ago, because my record label guy in the States really wanted to go. We had crazy good seats. It was fascinating watching the crowd - mostly men - who were so moved by these really esoteric lyrics. I don't know Neil Peart's lyrics super well, but they're not that straightforward to me.

मुझे बोल (lyrics) बहुत पसंद हैं। मैं हमेशा से पारंपरिक या सीधे-साधे बोलों के खिलाफ रहा हूँ। शायद इसकी एक बड़ी वजह यह है कि जो गाने बहुत साहित्यिक होते हैं, वे मुझे कभी पसंद नहीं आते। क्योंकि वे बहुत उलझे हुए लगते हैं, बिल्कुल किसी गाने की तरह। वैसे गाना होता क्या है? हमें यह याद रखना चाहिए कि एक कॉन्सर्ट का या लोगों को गाना सुनाने का असल मकसद क्या होता है। यह सब अब बहुत अमूर्त (बेमतलब) हो गया है।

I love lyrics. I've always been averse to the straight lyric idea. I guess a big part of it is, that songs that are literary always turn me off. Because they feel so abstract. Like a song. What is a song? We have to remember what the function of a concert and the function of playing a song for people are. It's all become really abstracted.

I think it is optimistic and positive - it's quite contradictory in that sense - from the lyrics. Until you actually read them, maybe they can seem contradictory.

कवि को भले ही कागज़ और तूलिका (ब्रश) के साथ काम करना पड़ता है, लेकिन सिर्फ़ यही चीज़ कविता को जन्म नहीं देती। इंसान कविता की तलाश में नहीं निकलता—बल्कि कविता खुद चलकर इंसान की तलाश में आती है।
